Schema Projects - DRAFTED Press Release

DRAFTED
January 25 – February 24, 2013
Opening Reception January 26th, 6-9pm

Press Release:

“Drafted” is the inaugural show of Schema Projects, the first Bushwick gallery dedicated exclusively to works of art on paper. Housed in a former barbershop storefront, it is the brainchild of New York artist Mary Judge, well known for her dedication to all forms of drawing, both as a studio artist and educator. Schema Projects will feature exhibitions of drawings, prints, sketchbooks, artists books, illustration and all things made on or of paper. The aim of the gallery is to highlight art forms on paper and to give exposure to the role of drawing in the creative process of all fields. This inaugural show will include local, national and international artists, with artwork arriving from Russia, Belgium, Spain, Denmark and Italy. It is our hope that Schema will contribute to the cultural dialogue in the visual arts in this vital community. Schema will have Director and Curator organized exhibitions throughout the year. A flatfile will extend the gallery holdings and be open to the viewing public.
